After the emperor sat on the throne and began his speech, he presented the questions for the palace examination in front of many court officials.
Standing to the side, Eunuch Huang, after receiving a signal from the Emperor, began to read out the questions for the palace examination: "After the palace examination, you will go to various places to take up your posts. What will you do if a plague breaks out in the area you are in charge of?"
Wenxuan's heart skipped a beat.
Chen Siyuan was right.
Fortunately, before following Su Wen, he had consulted several imperial physicians and doctors, and gradually he learned a lot from being a complete novice.
Upon hearing the topic, he was startled.
After thinking for a moment, I began to answer on the spot.
Qiao Yuchen, who was standing to the side, could no longer remain calm.
The woman's prediction came true.
Then... thinking about it, she looked at the Seventh Prince standing in front of her. Could what happened to the Seventh Prince be true?
No, there seemed to be a moment of doubt, but at this moment, he was quite certain that he was the Seventh Prince's advisor and could not have any disloyal intentions at this time.
...
Because of the questions in the palace examination, Qiao Yuchen couldn't calm down for a long time.
He finally got to the end of the palace examination, but he didn't even know how he left the palace.
Back at the new general's mansion, he had a lot to say, but when he arrived empty-handed, he remembered that the woman had gone to the general's mansion, so he immediately rushed there.
He thought a lot along the way.
The Seventh Prince is already in the most advantageous position, even surpassing the former Third Prince. If he truly has the ability, he will surely be able to secure that position for himself.
It's time for me to take care of my own affairs.
His woman was risking her life to carry his child at this time.
What kind of man is he if he's not by my side?
When he arrived at the general's mansion, he heard news that once again devastated him.
Because Minister Wang was seriously ill, Madam Qiao returned to the Wang family home for a few days and has not returned since.
The thought that Chen Siyuan was all alone made him want to kill himself.
At this moment, he was even more certain that everything else paled in comparison to Chen Siyuan.
What he once held dear now seemed dispensable.
Fortunately, Chen Siyuan was found intact in her mother's West Garden.
At this moment, Chen Siyuan, wearing an apron, bent down to trim the flowers in front of her.
A field of chrysanthemums, in all colors, pleased Chen Siyuan. But the scissors she was holding stopped when a butterfly suddenly flew past her.
As I watched, a smile naturally crept onto my lips.
Qiao Yuchen, who was rushing over, stopped in his tracks when he saw this scene.
Looking at the woman bathed in sunlight, he felt that this was his salvation all along.
As the leader of the Demonic Sect, he knew better than anyone what he had done over the years. At this moment, his heavy heart gradually lightened, as if his heart had finally found its place.
Chunlan and Chunping carefully tended to the butterflies, and they relaxed slightly when they saw them.
"Young Madam, look, it's a butterfly!"
"It's colorful."
Chen Siyuan held the scissors, smiled, and said with great self-admiration, "I am as beautiful as a flower, even butterflies are attracted by my beauty."
Chunlan and Chunping were amused by the narcissistic young mistress. As they laughed, they saw Qiao Yuchen standing not far away.
They exchanged a glance, bowed to Qiao Yuchen, and quickly left.
Walking to the corner, they didn't hide, openly watching the two people who had been reunited after a long separation.
They now know that the young mistress is pregnant, and someone is planning to harm her.
They didn't know who else would target the young mistress after what happened to the Empress Dowager.
They saw everything that happened that day and remembered it all.
"Yuan'er—" Qiao Yuchen walked over gently and hugged the woman from behind.
Chen Siyuan turned her head to look at her, "Are you done with your work?"
"Um."
"Shall we go for a walk?" She felt very heavy-hearted staying here all day. She knew it wasn't good for the baby in her womb, so she had to be careful now.
Because she is now an expectant mother, she wants to protect her child and bring the child into the world in a joyful atmosphere.
"good."
Chen Siyuan did not expect that she would suggest going out for a walk.
After visiting the Chen family and then the Wen family, Chen Siyuan gradually felt uneasy. Later, instead of taking a carriage to the General's Mansion, she went out of the city.
Only then did she realize that something was wrong.
"Qiao Yuchen, where are we going?"
Qiao Yuchen handed an apple to Chen Siyuan and said, "Let's go for a walk!"
Chen Siyuan passively accepted the apple, took a bite, and knew that her Zou Zou was somewhat different from the Zou Zou the man had described.
As they traveled south, the weather gradually became less cold. Along the way, they would stop to explore any interesting or delicious places they encountered.
Gradually, Chen Siyuan forgot her nervousness and felt an indescribable sense of ease as she stood beside Qiao Yuchen.
Along the way, I witnessed many folk customs and saw many children.
She doesn't know why, but she used to think there weren't many children, and she only saw a few occasionally. Now she sees pregnant women everywhere, with children playing together.
Chen Siyuan felt like she was possessed.
Why are there so many children everywhere?
As her doubts grew, Chen Siyuan's heart also felt lighter.
She knew it was because she was pregnant; all she could see were pregnant women and children. It was an instinctive urge to protect the baby in her womb and to look forward to the baby's birth.
Everything is so natural, there's no need to worry too much.
This time, I put down all the heavy bags I was carrying just to enjoy the scenery along the way.
